Omega-3 fatty acids are provided through dietary intake of fish and seafood. Several dietary supplements containing omega-3 fatty acids are also commercially available. Some studies have described beneficial effects from omega-3 fatty acids, among them are anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-arrhythmic, anti-hypertensive and lipid-modulating effects. Other studies have not confirmed these findings. This study will investigate the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on renal function and cardiovascular risk markers in renal transplant recipients.
